Reviews:
"I saw this film as "Johnny Little and the Giant" on the local "Colonel Caboose" weekday-afternoon cartoon show in the early 1960's. Some enterprising TV-film rental company had edited it into a serial of sorts, so it was aired in brief segments five days a week. It struck me as being a little on the strange side back then--which was all to the good in my book, as I was also a big Rod Serling fan at an early age!
Incidentally, a brief clip from this film appears in "Doorways to Horror", one of the earliest VCR games. I recognized it at once, even though it had been at least 20 years since the last time I'd seen any part of the movie!" Written by arel_1 on IMDb.com
"i discovered this cartoon in a bin of "bargain vhs tapes".having kids, we buy a lot of cartoons.
i would call this a lost classic.even though the copy i have has poor sound and choppy editing(it runs exactly 1 hour,and in several places you get the impression there's a scene missing).but no matter. as a whole its like a feature-length "SILLY SYMPHONY".hardly similar to "jack and the beanstalk" as the title would imply.lots of musical interludes with dancing worms,musical grasshoppers, and an educational limerick about beehives.
not as exciting as todays fast-paced animated features, but not without its own charms." Written by evul on IMDb.com
